One good one is 'The Druid King's Heir' which focuses on Merlin's discovery of his connection to the Druid King heritage. It has great character development and a really interesting plot that weaves in Druid magic and court politics. Another is 'Merlin and the Lost Druid Kingdom' which takes Merlin on an adventure to find a long - lost Druid kingdom and his place in it.
I really liked 'Under the Druid's Spell' where Merlin is put under a spell by an old Druid and has to fight against it while also dealing with his duties to the king. It's a great read with a lot of suspense. There's also 'The Druid King's Alliance' which shows how Merlin forms an alliance between the king and the Druids to face a common enemy, and it does a wonderful job of showing the different relationships and power dynamics.
A great piece of Merlin Druid King fanfiction is 'Merlin's Druid Destiny'. In this story, Merlin's true destiny as related to the Druids and the king is gradually revealed. It has detailed descriptions of Druid rituals and how they impact Merlin. Another recommended one is 'The King and the Druid's Apprentice' where Merlin, as an apprentice to the Druids, has to navigate his relationship with the king. It has a lot of heart - warming moments and also some tense scenes of political intrigue.
